Validation of gyrokinetic simulations in NSTX and projections for high-k turbulence measurements in NSTX-U
An extensive validation effort performed for a modest-beta NSTX NBI-heated H-mode discharge predicts that electron thermal transport can be entirely explained by electron-scale turbulence fluctuations driven by the electron temperature gradient mode (ETG), both in conditions of strong and weak ETG t...
